Better late than never – right……. Can’t believe it’s already the 13th! How are your New Year’s resolutions coming along? A couple of years ago my New Year’s resolution was not to make any. It was nice to make a list at the beginning of each year about things I wanted to do, etc., but life gets in the ways some times, then I’d feel guilty for not living up to my expectations. I definitely don’t need guilt trips, especially the ones I put on myself.

When I decided to enter the world of bloggers, I wasn’t really sure why I would want to do something like that and I’m still not sure I’m on the right track. I must admit I’m full of useless information, but there’s enough of that out there without my adding to it. So, this year I’m working on short “how to” craft videos for you. I wrote a feature column for a crafts magazine for about 10 years, entitled “Julie’s Shoebox Crafts“. It was basically a series of crafts made from stuff easily found around the house. Since this is the year of recycling, I thought it might be fun to show how to make these on a video. At least I’m willing to give it a try. Now please don’t expect to see anything for a few weeks; the light at the end of the tunnel was a freight train and the caboose is still nowhere in sight. I’ll definitely post a link here when I’ve figured out how to upload, etc. Let me know if there’s anything you’d like to see.

The Arts and Crafts trade show (CHA) is at the end of this month too, so I’ll give you a run down on what’s new, fabulous and fun when I get back!

Have a healthy, happy, prosperous and a very blessed New Year!

Yours truly,
Julie
